Herd Health

Herd Health- we offer herd testing for OPP in sheep and CAE in goats. We offer testing for Johne's in both species. We offer annual Brucellosis and Tuberculosis testing for show and milking animals.

We also offer the same list of specialized procedures for equines as listed above including ultrasonography for pregnancy detection and radiology for injured animals.

Camelids: Llamas and Alpacas- We see the pet camelids as well as fiber producing animals and brood stock.

Wellness exams- includes routine hoof care, annual vaccinations for Rabies, Clostridium C & D (over-eating disease), Tetanus. Includes worming and boosters for vitamin E and selenium to prevent white muscle disease. Includes vaccination for rhinopneumonitis for camelids housed with equines. We evaluate body scores annually as obesity is such a problem in these animals.

Sickness exams- emergency coverage includes administration of intravenous fluids, treatment for meningeal worm, treatment for choke, heat stroke, overeating disease, polioencephalomalacia, listeriosis, and "failure to thrive" syndrome.

Surgery- routine surgical castrations, fighting teeth trimming, growth removal., microchip insertion.
